Good news, I've bootstrapped Ant's master branch and run all tests
without any failure. Given the changes in the build vs Java9 I didn't
expect anything to break anyway. Ant currently detect the EA build as
Java9 which is something we'll need to work on.
Of the JEPs scheduled or proposed I only expect JEP 313 to affect
us. Our manual of the javah task already directs users of Java8 and
above to javac with -h and we mention that javah is scheduled to be
removed. But much like we do with the apt task in Ant 1.9.x we should
probably fail with a useful error message if javah is used but no longer
supported.
When do you expect to know whether JEP 313 is going to make it into
Java10?
Cheers
Stefan
